Whenever you find yourself in the situation where you need to talk about someone in good light or about them being praised in general, here are a few words you can use to sound fluent and intelligent in the process.

List of few words:

Meaning: When someone has been rewarded or recognized for their meritorious performances or exhibition of talent, they receive an award or “accolade”. It can even be used to denote someone who has been knighted. Before selecting their new CEO, the directors made sure they went through every candidate’s accolades so as to gauge their overall performance.

Meaning: When you make someone or something grander than it already is, in terms of either status, wealth, power, position, or qualities, you are said to “aggrandize” it. Sometimes, the word “aggrandize” is even used in a sense of paraphrase. Being knighted just aggrandized the glory of Elton John’s music worldwide.

Meaning: An encomium is a piece of writing or speech that is used to praise someone a lot. Normally, award acceptance speeches are examples of an encomium. Even eulogies delivered at funerals are an example of encomiums. Despite being a man of few words, all encomiums at his funeral were more endearing than he ever would have perceived them to be.
